I think the old man is her dad’s uncle. Her bio mom is the old guys daughter and bio mom was the cousin of her dad. So he’s her bio grandfather and adopted great uncle. Hope this made sense

I think of him as a psychotic clown but demon and vampire also fit

He’s a scholar not a fighter. Not everyone is good at or enjoys fighting, hunting, or killing. So his main level didn’t increase a lot because the main way to gain levels is to fight and kill.

This is a pretty good story but the release is insanely slow. 4 years for 23 chapters.

wow this manga is so slow to update

yea this feels like some manga/anime nonsense instead of poison

Yea and the move feels really against his character up until now. Just doesn’t feel like a move he’d make.

Not on the side of the new ppl but it’s a bit weird how antagonistic the village has been towards them considering the elves initially were going to unalive them all. Just odd that they’d be relatively chill with the elves and then this against the humans.

Suddenly having to give a speech that I couldn’t have prepared for about something I didn’t know would happen is kind of my nightmare and I don’t even have a phobia about speaking in front of a crowd. I just need some preparation is all.

nah read the afterword

Why TF does she have so much clothes on the top half and only a bikini on the bottom. It looks freaking bizarre and is 100% just fan service. It adds nothing to this story at all and is gross on young looking characters. Give her a tiny skirt at least. Why make her half naked?

Always love coming across you in comment sections. Generally I only find you in my more fave mangas/manhwas so it lets me know I have probably found a good one!

haha I just reread it all. Thankfully it didn't take too long and I genuinely enjoyed it

I don't know that he would. He's not entirely stupid just a power hungry AH. I think he saw Lawrence as not a threat to his power. Because Lawrence only has power so long as the king gives it to him. He can easily remove someone without any real social rank of his own. While getting rid of the Ebrons entirely isn't easy. They have power on their own which is why the king doesn't like them or want them to have more. But the king also knows when things will hurt him and currently putting Lawrence in any position of power will hurt his own power. The king acts like he will never die even while staring death in the face. He will only give Lawrence power to take away others power not to actually give his son power. Heck he killed his own sons (with Queen) because they became inconvenient.

Yea I was hoping he had a good reason for thinking she betrayed him and this wasn't it. She thought he had finally run away bc he hated things there or died or something. She thought him gone forever, even said that. She didn't want to be alone and thought him gone. It's not like he only caught the tail end of the convo. Ugh I was really hoping for a better scenario.

yea it's kind of a hellscape here. I hope our country can survive it and come out on the other side not changed for the worse.

He's way worse than Roygar. Not that either are good ppl but dang Lawrence is a nightmare human and will make the worst ruler. He's like a stupid and shortsighted version of his father (The king is very evil too but not as stupid and shortsighted)

so if a wind mage and earth mage worked together they could even hear conversations from far away. Honestly I wish they would show more cooperative magic in stories, especially those with elemental magic. Like a water mage that stops a fire mages spell from expanding too far or a water and earth mage that work together to make quick sand or an air mage that makes a fire mages spells stronger

I like the saying power corrupts those that seek it. Don't trust people that want to be in positions of power or authority because their intentions are inherently suspect.

They made it seem like it was rare but not once in a hundred years rare so maybe others also get it but only reincarnators get it strong enough to be able to tell who else is a reincarnation
